In response to "The Allegory of the Cave"

"In first person narrative" Growing up in Socrates cave my entire life caused me to be a complete introvert.Being confound to a cave was horrific.I myself as well as the other prisoners were unable to lead normal lives.We were chained down,totally immobile facing a wall in which shadows and echos was our source of reality. A twist to my situation was i was released from being a prisoner into society.It was like letting a wild animal out of a cage. My legs buckled as i tried walking for the very first time.Unfamiliar with my surroundings and unsure of where to go i aimlessly stagger til a kind bystander came to my aid.For the first time in my life i smelt fresh air,and saw the sun.The first initial view was blinding due to the fact I've only seen darkness.Farther and farther i walked towards the sunlight.The suns rays had the most invigorating warming feeling ever.As time past,being amongst the rest of the world i learned quick of what reality truly was. In a sense,living in a cave for numerous years was reality,the average human couldn't last a hour in the conditions i dealt wit.I returned to the cave to enlighten the other of what I've seen,to my surprise they shun me as if what i speak is factious. In my new found eyes i see the world for what it truly is,so i ask if what i was released to was corruption and evil? then What was i born into?
